We provide the perfect place for a family oriented vacation or a weekend getaway for all four seasons of the year. There are onsite snowmobile and ATV/UTV rentals, and we are located on a county road leading to local ATV and snowmobile trails. In addition, a restaurant and gas station are less than 2 miles away.

Halfway Lake

We are centrally located to Lake Superior, Whitefish Point Lighthouse, Tahquamenon Falls, Pictured Rocks, Grand Marais, Oswald's Bear Ranch, Crisp Point Lighthouse, and the mouth of the Two Hearted River with its notable suspension bridge. Most of which you can reach via snowmobile or ATV.

If you are looking for fishing, canoeing, hunting,
swimming, off roading, boating, hiking, bird watching,
agate collecting, snowmobiling, or cross country skiing, you will find beautifull surroundings and clean lakeside cottages at
Halfway Lake Resort.

Fishing:Rowboats, canoes, and kayaks are available with cottage rentals so you can enjoy the beauty of Halfway Lake while fishing for Northern Pike, Perch, and Bass without the requirement of a license. Catch and release all that you want, keep what you can eat that day, and leave the rest to enjoy for future visits.

We
are 10 miles from the Tahquamenon and the
Two Hearted Rivers, while the famous Fox River is in nearby
Seney. All three rivers are accredited as "blue-ribbon" trout streams. Nearby
to Halfway Resort are many inland lakes, rivers, and
streams flourishing with walleye, northern pike, perch,
bass, and rainbow and brook trout.

Snowmobiling:
We are in the "Lake Effect Snow" belt of Michigan's eastern Upper
Peninsula supplying some of the deepest snow and the best groomed trails available.
Why trailer to a trailhead when you can
snowmobile from your door? Sled rentals are available onsite; gas and food are within two miles.

Off
Roading: Halfway
Lake Resort provides a direct ride from your door and access to several hundred miles
of trails known as some of the best ATV and ORV trails in
the State of Michigan. ATV and UTV Rentals are available at Halfway Lake Resort.

Hunting:
Rifle and bow hunting
are two favorite and popular sports of Michigan's Upper Peninsula.
Thousands of acres of public State of Michigan land are available to hunt
bird, bear, trophy deer, and much more.

Birding: Halfway Lake boasts
a pair of nesting loons, kingfisher, and many other birds that call the lake their home. Bald Eagles, Sand Hill Cranes, and Osprey frequent our beautiful lake. Imagine sipping a cup of coffee on your porch, listening to the sounds of nature, and spotting an Osprey catch its breakfast of fish as the sun rises over the lake.

Agate
Hunting: We are 15 minutes from the
shores of Lake Superior, the middle of the banded "agate territory", the beach between Whitefish Point and Grand Marais. Agate hunting is know to be at its prime in the spring after the ice floes have brought a new supply to
the shore.
